Reserved for future use. 1 The NIC Interface Midspan performs under the TCP/IP, UDP port of 161. UDP port 161 for SNMP is an official IANA registered UDP port number. While attempting to connect to the NIC Interface Midspan via a different network domain2, the user must acknowledge that the local network supports the UDP port 161. 50 2 Different network domain Description of Diagram: - Building #1 has one main Network Server that links all three floors together. - Building #2 has one main Network Server with the Network Domain of 254.168.2.xxx. Different methods of connection: NOTE: Taking consideration that the Access Control from the Controller Setup is Disabled (Allowing all access) - Connection within the same Network Domain. (Please refer to thee diagram above for Building #1) For instance: • The NIC Interface Midspan is connected to the Network Domain of 192.168.1.xxx located on the 1st floor. All Computers connected to the Network Domain of 192.168.1.xxx can communicate with the NIC Interface Midspan. • The NIC Interface Midspan remains connected on the Network Domain of 192.168.1.xxx. Since Building #1 has a main Network Server that links all three floors together, the computers on the 2nd (192.168.2.xxx) and 3rd (192.168.3.xxx) floor can also communicate with the NIC Interface Midspan. 51 - Connection between different Network Domains. (Please refer to the diagram above Building #2) For instance: • The NIC Interface Midspan is connected to the Network Domain of Building #1 (192.168.1.xxx). Building #2 (254.168.2.xxx) would like to communicate with the NIC Interface Midspan from Building #1. Building #1 must configure the main Network Server to allow access from an outside source, in this case Building #2. Building #1 must be able to support UDP port 161, for SNMP. Once the access is allowed, Building #2 can communicate with the NIC Interface Midspan. 52 Appendix C: Frequent Questions Q: What is the maximum heat dissipation of the P7024A-XXX-X-XX-R with maximum load? A: AC mode ≈ 125W DC mode ≈ 20W Q: What is the function of the “current share” pin on the DC Power connector? Are there any protocols or procedures associated with it? A: The DC solution contains 3x 500W 50V rectifier modules (1000W N+1) with custom cables available for connection between the rectifier rack and up to 4 midspans. The current share pin is an option which could be used to have the power supply inside the midspan current share with the rectifiers. There are no protocols or procedures associated with it other than it’s designed only to work with our rectifier system and even then its not perfect sharing due to the inrush limiting components inside the midspan located on the DC input. Q: For the P7024A-XXX-X-N-R (NIC Interface option), does the P7024A GUI x.x.exe support the SNMP (NIC Interface option)? A: The P7024A GUI x.x.exe is connected to the P7024A Midspan via a USB connection. The SNMP requires a third party SNMP console to communicate with the P7024A Midspan. The current P7024A GUI x.x.exe does not support the SNMP. Q: What type of Display Properties settings is required to run the P7024A GUI (Serial Communication)? A: 16-Bit: 1024 X 768 pixels, 1280 X 1024 pixels 32-Bit: 1024 X 768 pixels, 1280 X 1024 pixels If the settings are set to be the values shown below, the edges of the GUI window will be cropped. 16-Bit: 640 X 480 pixels, 800 X 600 pixels 32-Bit: 640 X 480 pixels, 800 X 600 pixels 53
